8.5 I must agree with Avelorn. Perhaps this article could help, it took my pics from dire to passable in 5 minutes - http://www.coolminiornot.com/forums/viewthread.php?tid=11603
lovely colours, and shading m8,, i hav the privalige of marking you higher then most people cause i have seen most of your work in the flesh, hee hee,, and happy new year ,, sorry i never mailed had prob with pc?
I admire really your work, you have harmonious colors and a style of careful, precise and luminous painting. It misses only more elaborate bases as well as the best and larger photographs to be classified among the best...
I vote 10 even if the mini deserves 8.5 rather.
Bravo!
